This what Mayor Duterte and I want to end. We will restore the dignity of the teaching profession. No more cheapskate wage increases which do not address burdensome taxes, cost of living and living conditions in gene­ral.'

Cayetano added that the government should have fixed the compensation scheme for the teachers. Instead the government focused their efforts in implementing the faulty compensation system. Senator Cayetano might have been referring to the performance-based bonus system implemented by the DepEd that provides incentive to teachers based on their performance.
